The Sludgelord News : FOSSILS: Video Of Album Art Being Laser-Etched On Beef Jerky Released

What more does one need to hear, other than, here is a video
created during a late-night beef-jerky laser-etching session by a sinister
tech-wiz in an abandoned factory in Philadelphia after midnight inthe
tradition of incorporating meat into their album titles, visuals and artwork?
Not much, right?

Go chew on the "Filet Horizon" video from
Denmark's gnarliest instrumental bass and drum duo, FOSSILS, now hung out to
dry AT THIS LOCATION.

In-studio videos of FOSSILS' recording sessions,
featuring actual live takes and mixes found on Flesh Hammer, have
been leaked out over the past several weeks HERE.

FOSSILS is ready to distribute their second
album -- the pounding, utterly intense, Flesh Hammer -- set
for worldwide disbursement on March 3rd via Indisciplinarian.
Consisting of ten precise, noisy and ever-entertaining no-bullshit pieces of
music in twenty minutes, FOSSILS' succinctly pulverizing Flesh
Hammer was created by a band that has refined their trademarks of
thunderous riffs and stomping grooves side-by-side with complex rhythms,
pouring out their unique, stripped-down brand of instrumental, noisy rock. Flesh
Hammer was produced by Danish sound-enigma Q (Beta Satan, Entombed),
and will see worldwide release via digital download as well as 12" LP
limited to 300 copies.

Preorders for the vinyl are now live; internationally order
direct from the Indisciplinarian web shop HERE, while Earsplit Distro is carrying the LP
for North America with preorders available HERE.

The release Flesh Hammer will be celebrated
with two Danish release shows, at Radar in Aarhus on February 28th and at
Beta in Copenhagen, on March 1st. In the unconventional Fispirit of FOSSILS,
these will not simply be "typical" release shows with the usual
canapés and support bands, but instead an overload of awesome musical guests
will be involved in each of the performances.
